RE: [Declude.Virus] [OT} Anti-Virus - Client Side Suggestion
We use Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition. It has worked great for us. The corporate edition has no activation. I believe it is much better suited for the business world than NAV 2004. You set up a SAV server that controls the SAV client settings. (very nice central configuration and management) Also, only the server has to download the updates, which automatically pushes out the defs to the clients. I have schedule the server to updated defs every couple of hours every day. You get updates this way that you do not get by doing a LiveUpdate. I have been very happy with it.

The reason I ask is that I did have Norton Internet Security (NIS) 2k4 installed on my work laptop. Well, since it's a work laptop, I install, de-install programs most of the time and as a result, every month or two, I backup and re-ghost the HDD from an image. Just this weekend when I tried to activate the NIS I installed, I got the Activated too many times error. UGH! I'm awaiting a response from Symantec and was just asking about other alternatives for the anti-virus side of things.

Which do you think provides the quickest update I used Norton for a long time on Windows 2k but when I moved to XP I also upgraded to Norton 2004. It seemed much more complex to me with a bunch more services (maybe my imagination). Regardless, I had constant problems with it and no help from Symantec. Main problem was that after a reboot the AV could not start. Usually a 2nd reboot would fix but sometimes not. Also, my XP machine would sometimes just reboot itself for no apparent reason and I always felt it had something to do with Norton. Don't know that - could just be XP. Finally removed it and switched to McAfee on one workstation. So far I think I like it better and no problems on it starting and no reboots. Only thing I do complain about it with McAfee is the download process forces use of Internet Explorer and the scanning configuration program needs more granularity. On my XP notebook I'm using Kaspersky - it's kind of fun actually - screams if it finds something - a little too aggressive on non-virus vulnerabilities but probably something I can adjust out. All seem to me about equally effective over time. Also using Fprot and ClamAV and have extremely good results with both. Really with cost consideration Fprot has to be one of my favorites.

RE: [Declude.Virus] ClamAV and Declude problem
I had this same problem and had to stop using clam. I believe someone said that it was a problem with that version of clam. I don't remember what the fix for it was' but would be interested to know as well.

We only have a few mailboxes on this server because we're still testing it. Today, I ran into a problem where the D: drive ran out of space (100GB). It turns out the d:\temp folder was very large (90GB) and that was due to a large number of folders named long string of characters.clamtmp or some such. Each of those folders was full of very files, some quite large. My take is that these are temp folders created by ClamAV, but I can't figure out why they're being left behind. The lines for ClamAV in virus.cfg are: CLAMAV SCANFILE2 D:\Progra~1\clamwin\bin\clamscan.exe --verbose --database=C:\docume~1\alluse~1.win\clamwi~1\db --tempdir=D:\Temp --no-summary -l report.txt VIRUSCODE2 1 REPORT2FOUND I also noticed some strange lines in the virus log files: 07/13/2007 00:31:17.439 q2a03033d58e6.smd ERROR: Virus scanner 2 didn't finish after 60 seconds; terminating. 07/13/2007 00:31:17.439 q2a03033d58e6.smd Virus scanner 2 reports exit code of 0 07/13/2007 00:31:17.439 q2a03033d58e6.smd Couldn't delete D:\IMail\spool\proc\work\D2a03033d58e6.vir\report.txt: 32.

RE: [Declude.Virus] [Invalid ZIP Vulnerability]
Thanks. That's great! I've not blocked these before because of a large
number of legitimate emails needing to get through that would have been
blocked. This lets me block them if I want, but still let the legits get
through. I'm a newbie when in comes to Declude configs. I've pretty much
left a lot of defaults, but can this (the customized vulnerability.eml)
be limited to only be sent for certain vulnerabilities? I don't want
this sent for all blocked vulnerabilities and have the users get
notifications for things they don't need to.
Thanks!

We got slammed with them today as well. It caught a bunch that made it

spam filtering (we run AVAFTERJM ON). So I'd second that recommendation
to
NOT turn it off. If you're concerned about delivery, set up an email

Not too sure you'd want to turn that off. We've been getting hit by a
wave
of messages the last two days, all with the same vulnerability. I've
been
too busy to spend any time looking at the payload...but if they're not
viruses they are definitely spam. I'm catching about 40 per hour, widely
distributed among about 550 accounts across 100 domains.

Darin,
Thanks for your help. Guess I was hoping there was something along the
lines of and INCLUDEIFVIRUSNAMEHAS to only include the message for
specific vulnerabilities and to not have to list all of the ones I
didn't want to send for. Is there a list of all of the vulnerabilities,
or is this specific to which scanner(s) I am using?
Thanks
